[QUOTE="Fred Kingston_RIP, post: 187200, member: 10742"] Okay... we need more info then because obviously we're not communicating... When you point LR at a directory/drive/device, it sees graphic files there and compares them against the catalogue... and flags files it sees that are NOT already in the catalogue as eligible for Importing... You can selectively turn ON/OFF files... en mass before Importing... By changing specifics in the COPY/MOVE toolbar at the top... As the Import progresses... it will perform those actions also... If you want to sort/copy/move those files into specific folders (dates) by selecting parameters in those components, it will also do that... If you want, you can physically copy/move files by date into specific folders BEFORE opening/Importing files in LR... and then you can create NEW catalogues for those specific dates, and then Import those foldered files into the new catalogue... Having said all the above.... NOW what exactly do you want to do ??? :) [/QUOTE]
